    Cost probably wouldn't be that prohibitive. The crank need only be pressed apart and then back together in the right order, and cams made.

    On a 250cc motor though, there would be no point at all. It aint like 25 horses stress a tyre to the point that it needs a longer rest pulse.

    They don't do many press together cranks now Drew. But it isn't that expensive to have one made (depending on what you call expensive...)
    Just supercharge the little bugger, cheaper and more go at all rpm....

    Only worth it if there's a possibility of more revs I suppose... over 24thou should do the trick Imagine the poor guy who gets asked to make valve springs that'll handle that...or balance the crank...

    I think DEATH_INC is on to it, EFI, S/C and a hefty shot o' NOS should see a few rods to the crotch fairly fast

    I'll do the NOS kit, you take the piston in the dick during a 12o-clock wheelie (I would, but we know I fall off)

    I wouldn't go anywhere near the nos button while doing a wheelie. But you build it, and I'll ride it for sure!

    Sure, it's pretty unexciting unless you've got serious personal issues.
